During last nights performance OF "The
Mikado" a performer took part whose
name was not 10 the cast, but who was
nevertheless welcomed with uproarious ap.
plause. A little dog, whose evident aristo-
cratic breeding entities 1t to be called
"ecru" instead of "yaller," made his ap-
pearance and accused Miss Rose Leighton
Of being his owner as loudly as actions
could. After several Intellectual "scatsn
and "go ways" Miss Leighton finally set
tied his histrionic aspirations by grabbing
him by the neck aud passing him off the
stage, as II he were bucket OF water 10 the
hands of an old time fire brigade 1t was
indeed an inglorlous exit to follow such a
triumphant entry.
"Nanon" opens at the National Theatre
tonight at popular prices. The company Is
a strong one, and several OF the principals
have achieved great success in the parts
they assume tonight.
